Rumours are a brew with “The Brony Thank You Fund”, they say that it is a scam and they never even wanted to fund the commercial and run away with the money.

So the fine folks at EQD got in contact with The Hub asking about the matter and a spokesperson for The Hub has confirmed that the network has been contacted by “The Brony Thank You Fund” about the possible purchase of commercial time.

A few things to be noted are:

The Brony Thank You Fund has its own website

They have a Cafe Press page for you to get some of their swag.

A spokesperson has been selected for the commercial and it’s Mari Ohman an eighteen-year old high school senior from Colorado.

And finally William Anderson will select a lucky composer for the music

“The Brony Thank You Fund” has decided on a charity to support, the charity that they are going to support is The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. An IRS recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity is the fundraising, funding and support organization for the U. S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program.

Also recently one of the founders of “The Brony Thank You Fund” James Turner was contacted by Margaret Loesch, President and CEO of The Hub.

During the course their conversation, she had suggested two minor tweaks that she thought might make the script even better:

The first tweak they suggested was to make the ad more representative of all MLP fans by opening with "Hi, We’re fans of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and we’d like to say thanks.", rather than "Hi, we're bronies." We're not throwing out bronies, though. It's now at the end of the ad: "And to the creators and writers for bringing a little more honesty, loyalty, laughter, generosity, kindness and magic into the world, for kids and bronies alike."

The second tweak was to change the wording to acknowledge the contributions of all the creators, rather than referring to specifically to Lauren Faust.

Anthony Bourdain is one of the well know brony celebrity out there, being the host for the show “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” he gets to eat a lot of strange foods.

Recently he went to Finland where he tried horse meat, in one of the voice over he said “So Terrance let me try some horse meat... or is it pony meat, oh Rainbow Dash look at you now” and proceed to eat the meat and sang the MLP theme song.
